Resource for Community Reflection

A resource for theological reflection in community, using the Gospel readings for each Sunday in Advent, was prepared by Bill Cruse to assist parishes in the diocese to engage in a grace-filled and respectful way on how we should or should not respond as Christians to the Occupy movement that is sweeping our nation and the world.

Bill is a postulant of the Diocese of New Hampshire from Christ Church, North Conway. He works full-time as  an Associate & East Coast Program Coordinator with the Kaleidoscope Institute.  In this capacity as a consultant for Congregational Development and Intercultural Competency, Bill has planned and facilitated workshops all across the country for seminaries and various denominational jurisdictions and congregations including Princeton Theological Seminary, Virginia Theological Seminary, Episcopal Dioceses of NY, PA, MA, OH, United Methodist Church Annual Conferences of NY, Upstate NY, Washington DC, MN, and with the United Church of Canada.

You can find the 14 page document HERE as a Word document, and HERE as a .pdf.  Each Sunday's portion will also be entered into this blog on the appropriate Sunday.
